Chapter 42: Wine doesn’t make people drunk, people get drunk by themselves (4)
"Can I do it now?"
Zhao Ziheng's words were not directed to Wang Ye, but to himself. For him, who is now concerned about his children's personal affairs, can he guarantee that he will face the national and even world affairs wholeheartedly?
"sure!"
An answer came out of Wang Ye's mouth without any hesitation. Zhao Ziheng was stunned, but still lowered his head, because he did not rule out that Wang Ye was just comforting him.
"It's not right now or right now. I believe you will find the answer you want to know soon. Everyone has love affairs, and the king of a country is no exception. If you don't have it, no matter how well you do other things, people will still think you lack human emotions. If you have it, you will be closer to the people and let the people know that you are a king with emotions."
"So what should I do?"
Wang Ye's words not only failed to comfort Zhao Ziheng, but instead made him fall into pain.
"You just need to do what you should do. Even if you are stuck in love affairs right now, as long as you solve it well, I believe you will always get out of confusion. To you, Miss Wang is your wife, and to King Zhao, she is the only choice for the queen. It is only natural for you to bring your wife back and give her the title of queen. No one will ever blame you. People who don't know the truth may or may not blame you. As long as you have a clear conscience and do what you should do, and don't indulge in love affairs and ignore state affairs, I believe that one day even those who don't know the truth will forgive you-"
Wang Ye was a reasonable person, and would not condemn Zhao Ziheng for taking his children's personal feelings into consideration, because Zhao Ziheng did not completely ignore state affairs while taking his children's personal feelings into consideration, and handled every political matter that required his approval with the greatest restrictions. Although Zhao Ziheng took his children's personal feelings into consideration, he was able to handle political affairs with the greatest play, so how could Wang Ye blame or condemn him? There was no reason to do so, but not everyone could hold his mind to consider and tolerate.
"Feel sorry--"
"You don't need to apologize, because you did nothing wrong, and there is no need to blame yourself!"
It's okay to apologize, but blaming yourself will only hurt yourself. What's more, what Wang Ye said is true. There is no need for Zhao Ziheng to give up his only happiness just because he is the king of a country. Of course, he cannot ignore the survival of the entire country just because he only cares about his own happiness.
At this time, Zhao Ziheng finally raised his head and looked at Wang Ye. Wang Ye looked back at him without wavering...
"Brother Wang, I feel that the words 'hidden master' or 'recluse master' are not enough to describe you——"
"Oh! Thank you for the compliment!"
"I have imagined this thousands and tens of thousands of times, but I still can't figure out who you are and why you can see everything so clearly."
"Not everything can be seen through, just like the Mr. Feng you know——"
Wang Ye’s sudden words startled Zhao Ziheng. Why did he suddenly mention Feng Qinghan?
"you mean?"
Zhao Ziheng knew that he had no idea about Feng Qinghan's background and whereabouts, so how could he meet him at the imperial banquet tonight?
"Can you tell me how you and he met?"
In response to Wang Ye's question, Zhao Ziheng hesitated for a moment , and probably was suspicious for a while, then he told Wang Ye everything. Even though he didn't know Wang Ye very well, at least he could trust Wang Ye. Feng Qinghan had never had such trust before.
Time passes by little by little.
"I see--"
"What do you think, brother Wang?"
"No, not yet. I just advise you to keep your mouth shut and be more careful when communicating with this person—"
"Why do you say that, brother? Could it be——"
Could it be an enemy? Wang Ye did not dare to jump to conclusions, but he ruled out the possibility that it could be a friendly party.
"I think Feng Qinghan is not as simple as he seems. If possible, it would be better not to talk too much when you meet. Just talk about the topics between the two of you and don't go into other things, especially you, me and Miss Wang——"
Was Wang Ye's words just a reminder or a warning? I guess Zhao Ziheng should know what to do.
"As for Prince Jing and Prince Zhou... you'd better be careful. Prince Zhou doesn't know whether Miss Wang remembers you or not, but Prince Jing may take any action at any time. Moreover, after you meet Miss Wang, Prince Zhou may also take unexpected actions. In short, you are now living under someone else's roof. If you really want to confront him head-on, it will be very disadvantageous to you."
"Do you think I will be defeated by them so easily?"
"No, I never thought so!"
Not to mention that Zhao Ziheng's brains and thinking are not inferior to Zhou Cheng and others, just from his affection for Yin Yin, we can know that he will not lose to anyone, including him of course. Although he also loves Yin Yin, he is still far inferior to Zhao Ziheng. It's not that he doesn't want to fight for it, but he is fighting for a result that is bound to fail. Such a result is better not to have it. It also has extraordinary significance for him to hide his feelings for Yin Yin deep in his heart.
"By the way, Miss Xiuying has arrived, right?"
"Um!"
"I don't understand why you called Miss Xiuying here. Haven't I already settled her in Zhao State? Besides, you should have said before that you don't want her to be involved in any disputes, right? What are you thinking of calling her here now?"
"I really don't want it, but I believe that only she can do this. I will make it up to her in the future."
"What's up?"
"Doesn't my Lord hope to restore Miss Wang's memory?"
Wang Ye suddenly changed his tone again. Fortunately, Zhao Ziheng was already used to his sudden changes, but he was still very curious about what was going on.
"She knows some medical skills. From now on, I won't be able to get close to Miss Wang easily, let alone help her regain her memory. Xiuying was trained by me, and she is the only one who knows something about Miss Wang's past. I will teach Xiuying the method secretly, and I believe she can do it-"
"You mean to let her go to Shu'er?"
"That's exactly what I mean!"
"How easy is this?"
"I have my own way!"
"Xue Han?"
"As for him, I believe he has already made my position and identity clear to King Zhou, just like I told you everything about him. This is also the reason why I can no longer easily approach Miss Wang. However, for such a small matter, I think he should still agree."
"Can you trust it?"
"What if I say half and half?"
Wang Ye's answer left Zhao Ziheng speechless. It should be said that these words were too profound for him to draw a conclusion easily.
"I think Miss Xiuying shouldn't be involved in this—"
"I know--"
Zhao Ziheng suddenly changed the subject, and Wang Ye did not deny it but agreed.
"If you knew, why would you——"
Although Zhao Ziheng wanted Yin Yin to recover her memory very much, he still couldn't bear it if it implicated others. Wang Ye knew Zhao Ziheng's intentions, but some things could not be regretted once they had been decided!
Seeing Wang Ye was silent and his expression was slightly different from before, Zhao Ziheng remained silent. Wang Ye was very grateful that Zhao Ziheng could understand his feelings, so he stood up from the chair, walked to Zhao Ziheng's table, picked up the wine jug and poured it into his mouth...
Zhao Ziheng might not know why Wang Ye suddenly made up his mind, but he could sense that this matter was not to be underestimated by Wang Ye.
Wang Ye stopped only after he had finished drinking all the wine in the jug and wiped the wine stains from his mouth with his sleeve...
"The things that should be guarded and the things that should be protected may seem the same at first glance, but they are not the same. What was lost can now be found, so there is no reason to let go—"
Zhao Ziheng was puzzled by Wang Ye's words. Was it because he had drunk and was talking nonsense? Was it the so-called "it is not the wine that makes people drunk, but people themselves"?
